The person below me has an interesting tech support story to share. Even if it's made up.

About a week ago those nice folks at Microsoft customer service were so user friendly that they actually called me to let me know they showed my computer was infected! Wow - I didn't even realize my computer was in trouble, much less that Microsft kept tabs on my system.

The fellow on the phone was very patient and helpful as he walked me through the steps to retore my pc back good as new. He told me how to go to start, click on run and what to type into the command line, step by step.

What? that guy has never called you?

Sadly it's 99% true. I've gotten that call numerous times. While I wasn't foolish enough to go along with these con artist hackers I pity those who actually comply.

The person below me was a contortionist with Cirque du Soleil back when they were called "Les Échassiers"

To be fair, my sister was the contortionist. I never made it past "spotter".

The person below me thinks dippin' dots are the Mac Daddy of desserts.
